I'd like to put a list of keyboard shortcuts I want to learn on my desktop wallpaper so I can show and hide it quickly by pressing Win+D.
I'll want to be changing the list quite frequently as I remove ones that I've learnt and add new ones, so I don't want something that takes too long to make changes.
What tools are there to do this?
Followup: For the original use-case, shortcuts I now use a data:text/html,<html>...
bookmark that chrome will sync between my home and work computers. However I've taken to creating "Motivational Posters" on my desktop background and I would still like a solution other than BgInfo as I find it's font rendering jaggy/pixelated . (If I do get BgInfo to render better I could make the "posters" change randomly by Scripting BGInfo For Random Wallpaper).
For those interested in the keyboard shortcut bookmarks here is an example. Put this in a bookmark:
data:text/html,<title>Keyboard Shortcuts</title><style>kbd {border: 1px solid lightgrey; padding: 2px;background-color: #FDF4DC; }</style><h1>Keyboard Shortcuts</h1><dl><dt>Copy</dt><dd><kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Ins</kbd></dd><dt>Paste</dt><dd><kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>Ins</kbd></dd><dt>Cut</dt><dd><kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>Del</kbd><dt>Erase input</dt><dd><kbd>Alt</kbd>+<kbd>End</kbd></dd><dt>Tab Word</dt><dd><kbd>Alt</kbd>+<kbd>←</kbd>/<kbd>→</kbd></dd><pre>commands list:%0ACMD1%0ACMD2</pre>
1@nhinkle It's not "hardware shopping recommendations". What's the problem? – Sam Hasler – 2014-11-04T15:30:28.153

Somone chose the wrong close reason. It should have been "Questions seeking product, service, or learning material recommendations are off-topic...". The new site http://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/ is now a better fit ...
